Can’t send a message to somedomain.com. It’s a domino fault! It’s your fault!

  • 29 Mar, 2011

Yesterday the users complaim about this and conclude that it's a domino fault and my fault. For several years I received this type of complaint. Every time I researched the problem I found problems with DNS. Lack of PTR record, MX record in error and ultimately a lack of SPF record. . It's not Domino fault! It's not my fault! The fault is always (or almost 99%) the network administrators or DNS administrators. I use the following in my own DNS to avoid problems: 1 - Use the A record pointing to your Domino Server
2 - Create a PTR record for your Domino Server
3- Create a MX record and setup it pointing to the A record of your Domino Server.
4 - Create a SPF record(http://www.mic

Connecting LinkSys WRT54G using WDS and make a kid happy.

  • 13 Mar, 2011

Today I solved a problem with my wireless home network. My kid have a PS3 and wants to play online.
The signal strength was not too bad (52%) but the PS3 got some network errors and the kid loses the game.
My solution was to buy  another router TP-Link WR941 and link the Linksys WRT54G using WDS.
The problem was that WRT54G doesn't have support to WDS.  To solve this problem go and change the bios of the WRT54G from the LinkSys to
DD-WRT  http://www.dd-wrt.com/site/index. Look up for your WRT54G version  and follow the instructions. The WDS setup was easy, just setup the WR941 as usual (basic setup), like next, next and finish. The WR941 was the primary router (gateway to in

Precompile WebSphere Portal 7

  • 03 Mar, 2011

How To Speed Up WebSphere Portal Server 7 After the Initial Installation When any version of WebSphere Portal is first installed, there is always a significant load time for each JSP page.   The poor load time is attributed to the fact that each JSP page must be compiled the first time it is accessed.  To avoid the delay, execute the precompile-jsp command. 1. Open a command line and navigate to the following directory:

C:IBMWebSpherewp\profilebin 2. Execute the following command (all on one line)

ConfigEngine.bat precompile-jsp â€"DwasUser=wasadmin â€"DWasPassword=yourpassword

WebSphere Portal can eat your disk space

  • 24 Feb, 2011

When you have a portal for a long time (My case since 6.0.0.1) you apply a list of Fix during the life of your portal.
The directory version grows and you need to clean up to free disk space, I open a PMR and the answer was: "It is critical that the client does not remove the jar files from the   
backup folder.  This folder is very important if you decide to uninstall
a fix/fixpack or upgrade to a new fixpack.  If you install a fix, say   
PM0001 and it affects the portal.jar file.  What happens is that the    
original portal.jar file is stored in the backup folder and the new     
portal.jar is deployed.

Templates not compacting if wildcards are used in command

  • 23 Feb, 2011

You can use a compact command successfully with wildcards or without specifying databases on all databases in the Data folder and sub-folders but you can't do this for templates. This prevents templates being compacted every time you issue a generic compact command. You can also run a batch command if multiple templates must be compacted. Another workaround is to create a notepad document which lists all of the templates listed one template name per line as shown below: !Image:Templates not compacting if wildcards are used in command(http://platao.plansis.com.br/blogkenio.nsf/dx/templatescompact.htm/content/M2?OpenElement) This notepad document would need to be saved as file type ' All Fi
